Paul was raised in Attleboro. His parents are retired pharmacists and small business owners. He spent many summers and days after school working in his parents' drug stores, where from a very young age he learned the hard work, service and the challenges and rewards of small business ownership.

Our community needs someone who understands the national economy, someone who was thoroughly educated in macroeconomics and public finance, who has been invited as a guest on radio stations in New York City and Washington DC discuss the challenges associated with unemployment, debt, Social Security, and political gridlock, and has worked on job creation. We need someone who has thought about these issues and has been engaged with our community.
